    Kompany or De Jong

    Dunne and Kompany should be our new CB partnership: not quite sure about whether Richards can win his old RB place back. The Richards of two years would probably be our best RB but he looks to have lost too much of that pace and he's still quite reckless. De Jong is more of a dedicated DM than...

    did anybody read about Bellemy in the Mirror

    Good to hear about a different side to our new striker. And having worked with a relief organisation there in the mid 90s I know how valuable that contribution will be.

    Forget Mark Hughes: Is GARY COOK The Right Man For The Job?

    thats why they call me The Oracle! :) well, one criterion is the result of how he handled our biggest and most important transfer negotiation.

    I'll just take it you're being facetious with this comment. But is that all you've got to say on the matter?

    Nike was a well-established brand before he got involved with it. He was insulated against failure. Far better to engage a man who had turned a business around: and had the battle scars to show for it.

    Never Forgive or Forget These people

    I don't agree. Being vindictive and bent on revenge only means you're concentrating your energies on too narrow a focus. The important thing is to put all sch thoughts out of our head and concentrate on constructive matters. Like getting Mark Hughes the players he really wants: the players that...

    the question is: did he judge the price of failure before going for it, feet first?

    I don't doubt Gary Cook's version. Like I said: I believe he's a nice guy, and probably somebody I would trust. But often, in situations like this, you need somebody batting for you who you wouldn't trust even half as far as you can throw them. A healthy dose of scepticism, at the very least...

    Gary Cook's background is in marketing And I'm sure he did a very good job for Nike. But Silvio Berlusconi doesn't do marketing. At least not the kind Nike know. As I said elsewhere, we need a hardnosed business to run the club. And let him then hire a good marketing man

    I'm sure there are one or two former footballer who do understand Balance Sheets. But then its probably street smart business people who know how to get down ad dirty that we need. And let him engage a good accountant and marketing man to assist him

    Garry Cooke, is he good enough??

    here's the post from my thread which I made before I was aware of this one. The Mods may want to amalgamate the threads
